The Sky Bet Championship is back on our screens again tonight, with Blackburn Rovers taking in Millwall in what should be an exciting match. Here we have all the information you need to know before kick-off.

Tony Mowbray's Blackburn side currently sit pretty at fourth in the table, which with a win against Millwall tonight could see them edge just one point off the automatic promotion spot. Millwall are slightly further down the league, with Gary Rowett's side sitting comfortably in 10th spot.

The away side have been in electric form as of late, with five consecutive wins on the bounce - so could they cause an upset here tonight at Ewood Park?

Blackburn on the other hand will be looking to bounce back after a 2-0 defeat to the league leaders, Fulham on the weekend and have also endured a rocky spell as of late, winning only one out of their last seven matches.

Here is all you need to know about Blackburn vs Millwall.

Team News

Ben Brereton Diaz of Blackburn Rovers

There are injuries aplenty for both sides here, so both teams will be looking a little lacklustre.

Blackburn Team News:

Blackburn are without Dillian Markanday, Ian Poveda, Bradley Dack and key-man Ben Brereton Diaz for today's fixture - all through sustained injuries. Ryan Nyambe also remains doubtful, which could mean that we see Ryan Giles keep his place in the starting eleven for two games on the bounce.

Dutch defender Deyovaisio Zeefuik is also expected to miss out for Rovers after he lasted just under 20 minutes at Craven Cottage on Saturday. He'll most likely be replaced by Joe-Rankin Costello.

Millwall Team News:

Millwall will be without Maikel Kieftenbeld, Mason Bennett, Ryan Leonard, Shaun Hutchinson, Sheyi Ojo and Tom Bradshaw as their injury list continues to grow.

Daniel Ballard and Benik Afobe came into the starting lineups due to an ever-expanding injury list, and they're expected to keep their places tonight.

Blackburn Predicted XI: Kaminski; Lenihan, Van Hecke, Wharton; Rankin-Costello, Travis, Johnson, Pickering; Giles, Dolan, Gallagher

Millwall Predicted XI: Bialkowski; Ballard, Cooper, Wallace; McNamara, Mitchell, Saville, Malone; Burey, Wallace, Afobe

Usually, this decision would be a lot more simple, but given the recent form of both sides - we are torn...

Blackburn have been bitterly disappointing since the New Year, whereas Millwall have been in fine form. we can see this one ending in a draw.
